Gulamgiri is a seminal work authored by Jyotirao Phule, a prominent Indian social activist, anti-caste reformer, thinker, and writer from Maharashtra. Originally published in Marathi in 1873, with a preface in English, the book addresses issues related to caste, slavery, and social reform, making it one of the earliest critiques of the caste system.[1][2] It is described as the "‘seed text’ for an anti-brahmanical consciousness" by Omprakash Kashyap.[2]
